It Doesn't Have To Be That Way Lyrics - Jim Croce

Snowy nights and Christmas lights, 

Icy windowpanes, 

Make me wish that we could be 

Together again 

And the windy winter avenues 

Just don't seem the same, 

And the Christmas carols sound like blues, 

But the choir is not to blame 

But it doesn't have to be that way 

What we had should never have ended 

I'll be dropping by today 

We could easily get it together tonight 

It's only right

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

Crowded stores, the corner Santa Claus, 

Tinseled afternoons, 

And the sidewalk bands play their songs 

Slightly out of tune 

Down the windy winter avenues 

There walks a lonely man, 

And if I told you who he is, 

Well I think you'd understand 

But it doesn't have to be that way 

What we had should never have ended 

I'll be dropping by today 

We could easily get it together tonight 

It's only right 

No, it doesn't have to be that way 

What we had should never have ended 

I'll be dropping by today 

We could easily get it together tonight 

It's only right
